What if a drivers champion was just ignored when calculating points for both championships? That feels like the simplest way to calculate constructors totals.
@@Jesus_H._Tap-DancingChrist Slightly different as he didn't leave to stop racing; he asked for more money and wasn't given it, then they signed Prost so he took a year off. He did return though in '94 & '95 so wasn't done with racing and didn't retire from F1 until sometime around 2016 (not kidding...)
Lots of saved lives there. Senna, Peterson, Villeneuve, Rindt, de Angelis. Laffite doesn't break his legs. Lauda doesn't get burned. Regazzoni doesn't get paralyzed.
I'm not really sure about Ascari. Let's bear in mind he wasn't driving an F1 car on that fateful day at Monza. He borrowed a Ferrari 750 Sport from his friend and colleague Eugenio Castellotti. You'd argue that he made that attempt just to overcome the shock of his crash at Monaco few days before and that this specific crash would have never happened in this alternate universe. Still, with his system he would have been banned by F1, as he achieved his first title in 1952, but not by motor-racing as a whole. Especially for an informal session. That being said, I share with you all my hope that, at least in this parallel reality, the great Alberto Ascari did actually safely survive. He is deeply missed.
I love the storylines in this, I love learning about the lesser-known non-champions of the past decades Piquet’s struggle to win a title was especially unexpected 😂
Yeah it's crazy that you can miss out on 2 of your real titles. I was expecting a couple like Phil Hill or Keke Rosberg but not Piquet. Glad I could shed some light on some driver who don't get talked about as much. F1 has a lot of history but obviously some names are a lot more famous than others
Obviously, Piquet voluntarily dropped back from 1st to 3rd in the final GP of 1983, because in reality that was all he needed to be champion. Presumably he wouldn't have dropped lower than 2nd in this alternative reality.
What a great concept for a video. It makes you think about all the drivers who never had their moment of glory while competing alongside the all-time greats, and then, of course, the sad reality of fatal accidents when looking at these alternate timelines.
This video is amazing. I would never have the patience to do something like this. Mr.V is one of the few remaining F1 content creators still to have unique and original content.
Your green-screen work has improved a ton since the early videos (which I watched thanks to Tommo's Mystery F1 Creator link in one of his videos). Kudos Mr. V
Well, I had expected this to be interesting, and it was! I hadn't expected to feel a little emotional with the posthumous winners, and the winners who avoid future accidents. Excellent video, 10/10, would watch again.
Pausing at the very beginning to suggest that, as someone who makes Excel Spreadsheets when bored, you missed your calling as a Williams engineer now that Vowles is moving to modernize. Throwing an edit in here to add that I'm new to your channel and don't know your history, so if you are in fact a Williams engineer, congrats on a great career and I'm sorry that your favorite part about the job has been taken away from you.
Haha I was a vehicle engineer but not for Williams. Don't worry, despite the news stories, every company is still using A LOT of Excel so the opportunity is still there 😉
Great video! I like that you put in the effort to tell the story of the season and races instead of just showing the end result. Excited for what the 90s will bring!
Thank you. Didn't make sense to just show some numbers on the screen, I thought it was only right to tell the story of a few people who don't always get a mention in F1 history
You could go through the effort yourself… Ive completely gone through 1990 and 1991 and half-heartedly done 1992 and 1993. It is a bit tedious, reclassifying every race and then adding up the points afterwards, so I can definitely appreciate the effort
When you mentioned Boutsen being in the running for the title, I genuinely said out loud "F*ck off!" Which resulted in a slightly embarrasing conversation with my wife! 😂
Lmaoooo The fact that all g.hill had to do was survive the races and not crash the car, Ik there was obviously a lot of skill back then to do that since the cars were gripless but still, just amazing to think, Once again the mad man brings a Banger ! Keep it up big guy, you're doing awesome !
Fantastic stuff, thanks. And an idea for a future video: multiple champions per year. Plenty of times when a season ends, there is always talk of someone "deserving" a title more than the actual champ. Well, what if you could have two or three champions for some seasons? Like 2014 both Hamilton and Rosberg, 2006 both Alonso and Schumacher (as Schumacher arguably lost the title with the engine failure). Purely subjective and not at all controversial topic, but should make for fun speculation and seeing someone like Prost grab 10 titles would be interesting.
Anyone above a given amount of points gets declared as a sharer of the title and retired for the rest of the season. That way teams have to show the car is really good and not only fast with a specific driver
@MrVsGarage no one else does anything like this from what I've seen. You could make this YOUR niche and build a strong fan base and following off of it if they perform to your liking, in my eyes :). It's rare to find someone doing something entirely original online these days.

I'm just 10 mins in but i already have to say, that this is the most interesting and entertaining F1-Video I have seen so far. Great idea and I'm sure a lot of work, thank you very much! 😊
the amount of work you have done for this video is just amazing. To recalculate some 10x races every year for few years is incredible when also the number of races go up almost every year. Big Salute for this kinda content, I thought it would be boring because you started in the 1950s( bc for me I honestly don't really know any drivers before 2000) but it was super interesting to watch. Keep it going man
I’m sorry Mr V. but you’re not the first one to do this. Someone on Reddit keeps track of this weekly with all data leading back to the start of championship. It’s called the elimination championship and has all spreadsheets available for free, including some fun stats such as new amount of wins, races before championship, etc. Still I’m glad to get your take on it as your look at all stories is very fun and a lot more interesting than a load of spreadsheets.
I found that out yesterday tbh. It's a cool concept which honestly makes more sense written down so I imagine theirs is better, but as you say I was more interested in the story side of it
Fun fact: If you want to see the full title, go to Formula Points and go to simulator and go to team/driver selector, and ban the already champions on the year you want to simulate, and you have a full-detail version of this
@@danteangotti5786the other drivers missing gave Von Trips better results in the races where Hill didn’t do so well. Hill probably benefited from this too but not so much
Hey, love your videos, great content! I had an idea couple of years ago: what if we calculated the champion of the year by the total distance covered? Alternatively would the outcome change if we add up race results? Eg. Senna won by 30s in Suzuka, but Prost won by 31 in Brazil? Would the outcome be different if you consider the finishing time for all drivers in all races?
Thank you, that's high praise. I was tempted to make this one HUGE 1hour+ chart party style thing but then I remembered I have no idea how to go those graphics
Minor note as well in this format, Graham Hill does not become the sole triple crown winner in history, as he is banned in 1962, while in real life he won Monaco in 1965.
I take off my hat to you sir! Excellent work. Now, if you still feel bored after part two: do the same for Premier League and Eredivisie football 😀. In my country, only three clubs have won the cup (with only two exceptions) since the introduction of professional football in the Fifties. One over 30 times to date.
Haha that sounds like it's on a whole different level. How does it even work in football? You kick a team out but then what happens to the people who played against them?
7:55 those variety of colours😍, we need that back (not looking at alpine, haas, merc and the teams that arent ferrari, redbull (yes redbull does have this very dark blue-purple-ish coulour on their car even tho you can barely see it) and williams)
Great concept and looking forward to the next part. Imagine what would have happened in situations where drivers collided with someone who would now be banned and how that could’ve shaken up the results. Similar to Ocon’s win in Hungary where Bottas (who I’m assuming wins a championship) is no longer around to take out a quarter of the grid.
I'm baffled to see how many seasons Piquet had to wait to become champion. Mansell too, I can't wait to watch part 2. Great stuff, very original and entertaining!
@MrVsGarage I have an other idea for a long time: Drivers are not connected to teams. Instead, they do the first 12 races in each teams. Then, the pilots with the most points will do the rest 12 races in the top 3 teams. This way, no pilot will dominate for 5 years just because a team got one technical rule better than the rest. And we get to find out who is the best pilot. And the best team still wins.
Only seen this today after part 2 coming up as a suggestion and watching that. Very enjoyable amd interesting. I once worked out if the old numbering system was still in use what the numbers would be like. Like you i did it cos i got bored one night and also prefereed the old numbering system.
You saying the Swedish GP made me sad as a Swede. The dream would be that they built a new track and that we would get a Swedish GP again but thats probably not gonna happend
If Gilles Villeneuve had won a championship in 1979 then retired, it would have prevented his tragic death during qualifying at the 1982 Belgian Grand Prix, and he would probably still be alive today in 2024, perhaps an F1 team owner at Villeneuve Autosports (a team which he sadly did not live to found).
As a spreadsheet fanatic, long time F1 lover and a fan of great videos I have to like this. We also need to know how many times Hulkenberg has been on the podium! This alternative time line might have a driver that never got the title and because of that participate in the most races end up being the stats leader on a lot of metrics. Will you release all the data?
Great video! Just spotted 1 little error. According to your own commentary Jackie Stewart and Clay Regazzoni would both have been the "first ever" rookie champion. I think you forgot your earlier mention of Jackie Stewart haha :P
Interesting thought experiment. It is highly possible that unknown new rookies could have shaken up the title hunts in many ways. Grabbing championships themselves after a few seasons or sewing chaos on track, like colliding with somebody who otherwise could have won a championship. The driver market would have been vastly different altogether, as McLaren’s MP4/4 could have still won just as many championships, but with a different veteran driver every year. Or without the input of some drivers to develop a car, because they’d already been banned, some dominant cars never get developed. Schumacher for example wouldn’t be there to help Ferrari build a car that dominated so many seasons.
This is absolutely incredible, such an unnecessary but brilliant feat of “what if”! However I’m a little lost as to what went on with 1961. Why wouldn’t Phil Hill have remained champion?
Crap!! Never would have known if you hadn't pointed that out, the picture was tagged as 1988. Well, at that wasn't driven either as Prost Senna were still banned so the point is still half correct.
Hey, love your work! Can you calculate a worldranking list like in tennis? So different races offer different amount of points and they get "deleted" the following year
I cant believe you didnt track 70 years of alternate driver transfers. Great video!
Just wait for the next video 😉
(but for real I can't barely predict the transfers for 1 year let alone 74)

This alternative time line might have a driver that never got the title and because of that participate in the most races end up being the stats leader on a lot of metrics. Will you release all the data?
I got this video recommended and thought, is this the madman that had made the elos and all of that? You were!
If you see an F1 video that sounded like it took 3 weeks to make, yes it was me
You're bonkers. And very clever, and we loves it.
Don't know about clever...
Great video! Just spotted 1 little error. According to your own commentary Jackie Stewart and Clay Regazzoni would both have been the "first ever" rookie champion. I think you forgot your earlier mention of Jackie Stewart haha :P
Interesting thought experiment. It is highly possible that unknown new rookies could have shaken up the title hunts in many ways. Grabbing championships themselves after a few seasons or sewing chaos on track, like colliding with somebody who otherwise could have won a championship. The driver market would have been vastly different altogether, as McLaren’s MP4/4 could have still won just as many championships, but with a different veteran driver every year. Or without the input of some drivers to develop a car, because they’d already been banned, some dominant cars never get developed. Schumacher for example wouldn’t be there to help Ferrari build a car that dominated so many seasons.
This is absolutely incredible, such an unnecessary but brilliant feat of “what if”! However I’m a little lost as to what went on with 1961. Why wouldn’t Phil Hill have remained champion?

“And when i get bored-“ *Dutch anthem quietly plays for 1 second*
really cool video, commenting to feed the algorithm gods.
Those gods in mysterious ways, thank you for your offering 🙏
Great video, but the image at 21:50 is not of MP4/4, it's MP4/5 that's shown there.
I know, shhhhhh, I couldn't find one of the MP4/4 with both the drivers
Just came across the video, awesome job!
Just wanted to point out you put a picture of the 1989 MP4/5 (notice the airbox) instead of the 1988 MP4/4.
Crap!! Never would have known if you hadn't pointed that out, the picture was tagged as 1988.
Well, at that wasn't driven either as Prost Senna were still banned so the point is still half correct.
